Can you be divorced after being widowed?

Rita Jean Jencks
Answered by attorney Rita Jean Jencks (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Jencks Law Firm P.L.L.C.
No, you cannot get or be subsequently divorced from a deceased spouse. There is no need. I don't know what your mother-in-law's motives are except possibly to try to cut you out of your wife's estate and any possible benefits due you based upon her death. Such as an award due to a car wreck or work place injury. I would need more information to more accurately determine that, however, the important thing is you are not eligible for divorce for any reason due to your wife's death. Sorry you are having to face such an issue so soon after your wife's death.

Can you get your spouse to stop dragging the divorce on?

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Hi Michelle, Thank you for your question.  I know how worried and frustrating it can be when a divorce is dragged out.  A skilled and experienced divorce attorney can ensure that your divorce case moves forward as quickly and as fairly as possible.   Many factors determine how long a divorce can take, including the issues involved, what county has venue, what Judge is assigned to the matter, how obstreperous your soon to be ex-wife is being, and the number of other cases on the court docket.  There are however many tactics a skilled divorce attorney can use to navigate through the complex divorce process to ensure that even the most complicated of divorce cases proceeds as expeditiously as possible.  Zealous representation by a seasoned divorce attorney to protect your interests and ensure that your divorce does not “fall in the cracks” and get put on the back burner is the best way to ensure that your divorce keeps moving forward to a final and fair resolution.  I understand that you need answers and need to protect yourself.  Our firm offers free consultations and I strongly encourage you to schedule one.  In meeting with one of our family law attorneys, you will get answers to your questions and immediately feel more informed about your situation and your options.  Please send me a private message with your information so that we can be in touch or call our offices at 888-888-0919.  Regards, Bari

My husband and his attorney are refusing to participate in a settlement conference, is trial the only option left?

Cathy Rose Cook
Answered by attorney Cathy Rose Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cathy R. Cook, Attorney at Law
If the court ordered a settlement conference, they are required to participate. The case should still be set for trial, in case the conference is not successful.
